These MONTE EN SARRE camera are getting harder and harder to come by.
They are wonderful WWII historic marked camera.
Very few were made but to get them on the market in this condition is RARE and not often seen.
The last example I saw was sold for nearly $3000 this past year in 2025.
Classic set and a pleasure to have and enjoy.
